Amouage Interlude 53

An exceptionally concentrated, rich and smoky interpretation of the iconic Interlude Man, crafted at an extraordinary 53% perfume oil concentration and aged for six months at Amouage’s factory in Muscat. It opens with bright bergamot against intensely aromatic oregano and fiery pimento berry, creating the unmistakable spicy character of the Interlude DNA. The heart becomes deep and resinous with frankincense, amber, cistus and opoponax, before settling into a powerful base of leather, agarwood, patchouli and creamy sandalwood. Dense, smoky and commanding, Interlude 53 takes the celebrated “chaos” of the original and transforms it into something richer, smoother and more harmonious.
